lyrics

My Laura is the sea
With all beauty, there comes treachery
With rolling waves and sea blue eyes
She calls to me through neon nights
She calls to me through painted stars
And the distant noise of car alarms
She holds me in her skinny arms
My Laura is the sea
With all beauty, there comes treachery
Hold me in a star gripped gaze
The neon nights and sun-bleached days
Her many mysterious, perplexing ways
The sun beats us down with its brutal white rays
Let’s take off our clothes and let death have its way
My Laura is the sea
With all beauty, there comes treachery
Drain my wallet helplessly dry
I’ll get evicted and search endlessly through the night
No glimpse of your face when I’m knocked to the ground
You’re only around when my wallet’s around
More star gazed boys left to drain in this town
My Laura is the sea
With all beauty, there comes treachery
Is this thing they call love just a futile myth?
Does it really exist? Or did it ever exist?
Did we make it like we made God to pass the time and gives us hope
When there’s really not much hope, it’s just that lies help us cope
That’s why we made fairy tales and invented magic tricks
To cover the truth of how dismal life is
My Laura is the sea
With all beauty, there comes treachery
